So a thing about AI is that, not understanding the material itself, it cannot understand what the gap is in someone else’s understanding.
Students already have access to materials that will repeat important points over and over. They don’t need more.
As a chem TA, one of the most valuable things I ever did with struggling students in office hours was have them narrate for me how they would solve a problem, and then figure out what it was they weren’t getting.
That’s how you get the lightbulb moments.
Interesting. That sounds similar to the way software engineers use "rubber duck debugging" - explaining your problem out loud can often lead you to determine where you're stuck
